Struggling to make ends meet and to bounce back after falling victim to a string of bad luck, the down-on-his-luck salesman, Phuchit, is drowning in debt. Then, unexpectedly, Phuchit receives a phone call from a stranger, informing him that he must execute thirteen tasks to receive an immense financial reward. Hesitantly, Phuchit decides to take part and accepts the first seemingly innocuous and relatively easy challenge: swat a fly. Now, with twelve more tasks to go, Phuchit can't help believing that, even though cash starts flowing in his bank account, he is trapped in the elaborate plan of the unseen masterminds behind the sinister game. Little by little, as Phuchit's need to complete the game escalates, the tasks grow more extreme, to a devastating point of no return. How far is Phuchit willing to go to complete the game of death?—Nick Riganas
